 <p>It is worth noting that our study is not (at this stage) a discourse analysis of the content of the mailing list per se. Rather, we used the structure of the list itself (the &quot;meta-data&quot; so to speak) to infer a type of &quot;time series&quot; of the networked activity that occurred on the list in the past 21 years (1995-2016).</p>

 <p>One can clearly see that this rate increases at the beginning of the 00's, flattens out between 2002 and 2005, diminishes considerably between 2005 and 2011 and increases slightly between 2011 and 2015. More precisely, if we assume the subscription rate to be linear (which of course is not really), from 1995 to 2001 the rate is roughly 33 subscriptions/month, from 2001 to 2002 it is 66 subscriptions/month (600 in 9 months), from 2002 to 2004 it accounts to 27 subscriptions/month, from 2004 to 2005 to 25 subscriptions/month, form 2005 to 2011 it drops to 6 subscriptions/month and finally it amounts to 10 subscriptions/month from 2011 to 2015.</p>

 #Synopsis
 
 While contemporary social media have been critiqued for their ephemeral effects on activist politics, the mailing list has proven an enduring venue for geographically dispersed communities to participate remain in dialog over the course of decades. Founded in Amsterdam in 1995, the Nettime mailing list ([http://nettime.org](http://nettime.org)) has played host to a community of activists and media artists and help to launch or establish the careers of a number of prominent new media theorists and Internet critics. Established in an era prior to the corporatization of the Web, over the course of its twenty first years (1995-2016), Nettime has continued to discuss the Web in terms of the radical political possibilities with which it was imagined in its ‘salad days’.
